It was independence day
Ive seen the other side and I say
Oh, Ive been insane
And I wont never been same

[Nick - spoken word]
As the raw son sins in glamour
And his greedy and violent rage
Stimulate and torment assailants
Peace is dead
Uneasy moment as the first warrior stirs
?? denial ?? scheming to return
The battle begins as the first victim
Slowly, grudgingly
Submits to the captivity of consciousness
And I say
It was independence day
